Changing the conventional meaning of "weight" is an inappropriate reaction
to a pedagogical "problem" that doesn't exist. If a student proves
incapable of understanding the conventional definition then perhaps we
should advise that student that he is not suited to a discipline which
requires him to understand physics. Again, I'll have to apologize for
offering such a radical solution.
